The coaches, proctors and High Rank – all of whom have been subjected to at least a thousand hours or more of Mr. Raniere’s highly developed hypnotic induction techniques – seem to fall into several distinct categories concerning DOS:

They do not believe DOS exists.

They know it exists but think its practices are voluntary and worthy for women.

They are sociopaths. It does not matter that women are suffering. They are concerned about their own desires. That includes money they can make with ESP [which is not likely to be much].

They are true disciples of Mr. Raniere and have evolved to advanced levels of sociopathy. It tickles them that women are suffering through DOS.

They suspect Mr. Raniere is demented, evil and vengeful. They are coming out of their hypnosis and gradually becoming deprogrammed. Some are considering escape from Mr. Raniere.

They know Mr. Raniere is insane and destructive. They attended the Coaches Summit but, considering what Mr. Raniere did recently to Sarah Edmondson and Toni Zarattini, they have to be careful and plot their escape with great care. They attended the Coaches Summit, not because they wanted to attend, but because their non-appearance might have brought suspicion about their intention to leave. For the present, they must appear to be supporters because of collateral Mr. Raniere possesses, the amount of debt they owe the company, or the concern that Mr. Raniere might order some of his minions like Vice President of Operations, Clare Bronfman or Executive Board members, Alex Betancourt and Emiliano Salinas to use their enormous wealth and their willingness to bear false witness and bring criminal charges against them. This seems to be especially true of the Mexicans.
